OK I have done searching and reading and found other guys that have posted and said they have gotten their VX8700 to work with the AVIC-D3 bluetooth.

Here is my situation:

I have been able to pair my phone with my unit without much trouble. I have also already registered my phone with the AVIC-D3. That didnt take much time for me to figure out. However, now that everything is connected, when I make a call from my d3 to my house, and I hear the phone ring, and its answered, I cannot hear nor can my house phone hear me.

I called Pioneer for help, and putting this politely, their customer service sucked. So Im left with the knowledge of you guys/girls and if not, hopefully my shoddy installer can figure it out. (They didnt even bolt back in the A/C control unit (the gray box) after install) Found that out after I pulled the shifter casing on my 350z.

Check that you have the P-bus cable plugged in the correct hole. Also check that the microphone is plugged in all the way

Assuming its all plugged in properly, is there anything with my phone I should be doing, or the unit itself?

I wanna know if you were able to transfer ur phonebook over to the D3 and if u have how did you do it???

I have my phone registered and all works great. Just can't transfer

Havent tried but I can tomorrow and post back. Im more concerned with getting basic functioning of my bluetooth in my car at the moment. Then I can worry about having easy access to my phone book lol.

Kryngle, does your vx8700 work with your avic-d3? If so, anything special you had to do to get it to work?

My VX8700 works great with it. I can make calls, reveive calls and hear the person GREAT. Did you try messin with the volume on the phone?

I had to do some adjustin with the phone and the D3. But nothin special is really needed. Your phone should work. Just make sure your phone is visible when tryin to pair the phone and the device. Once that is done, connect the two. If you haven't registered DO IT. Also check your sercurity settings. I have mine set to ALWAYS CONNECT.

What all settings need to be turned up besides basic volume on the phone? And should that even affect my ability to hear incoming calls?

If you are not getting any sound, I would say its safe to assume its not plugged in properly

Oh yea the volume for BT on the D3 is different from the Audio volume. I had to mess around with the BT volume... Iam tryin to figure out why you can't hear the other person. Hmmmmmmm

Because the P-bus cable is plugged into the wrong hole

How in the world would a professional installer plug the wrong cables into the wrong slots in the blue tooth unit? Isnt there like only 1 spot that they would fit.....

It can happen. I plugged mine in the wrong spot the first time. It was becuase I got a little confused with the instruction and my GEX-P10MT device BUT managed to pull through.

Well Ill check out the connections, but Im hoping they werent that bad. Otherwise, I should have paid kryngle to install it lol.

Now thats what I like to hear... Iam where the money's at son lol

Easy mistake if they were in a hurry. Just pull it out of the one its in and stick it in the other one. Then give it a try

They obvioulsly were in a hurry if they couldnt take the time to screw in the ac control unit box behind the dash when they were finishing up...lazy bastards.

So I take it problem solved or you still messin around with it?

Not pulling the unit out at 10pm. Ill look into it tomorrow hopefully or sometime this week. Ill check out the phonebook thing as well.

Hey kryngle, thought I would help you out on the phone transfer to your D3. I had the same problem with my LG VX8700. Make sure your phone is paired and connected properly. Start up your D3 (with parking brake applied) and let your phone connect. Once that's done go to the BT phone menu and touch "Phonebook Transfer". It'll take you to a blank screen and disconnect your phone. You have to send the contacts individually due to something weird between LG phones and Pioneer. Select Settings & Tools on your phone's menu, then select Bluetooth Menu, scroll to and highlight the bluetooth device. Next click the Options button on the screen, then click Send Name Card. It should list all your contacts with a blank box next to it. Select "Mark" on only ONE contact and then select Done and it will send your contact info to the bluetooth device. You can't send all contacts at once or it won't take it correctly. Your D3 will say Transfer Completed when it's done. You've successfully sent that contact. You have to deselect the current contact and select the next contact on your phone and follow the same procedure. It takes a few minutes to do all your contacts but it's the only way to do it. Good luck and any questions just let me know.

Well I have done what you have stated at what I have realised is that all works up until after I pair the two devices and it ask's me to connect. I select YES and it just brings me back to the PARING selection again. I just keep on doin the samething over and over again and yet I can't transfer nothin. Iam up in Canada and Iam hearin the the service provider named Telus has a reputation of crippling their phones. That better not be the case.
